@MiketheSnow Dmac isn't in the ABs. He'll join the Baabaas this week.

With Foster obviously not trusting Perofeta, if Mo gets injured I'd be far more confident with DMac going to 10 than BB
You pick your best 23

Definitely
Coming in to the Summer internationals I tipped BB to return to his best
At 10
He didn't and he hasn't
But with JB going to 12 and Jordan injured then BB is the best 15 available

I'd say Codie/Newell/Vaa'i/TJP/ALB are givens.
De Groot/Bower tricky because latter very good Sunday.
Frizell/Akira is perennial Fern chewing bone.
Part of me would like to see Reece on bench, but injury considerations come into play. -
Given how well Telea played maybe there is another decent wing out there?
We still lack a spare 13 behind Ioane if ALB no longer suits there.
From what I saw of the AB XV Big Leicester would at least add a bit of oomph. -

You've gone quiet on Nepo fella

I'm sure he has workons, distribution or turning speed/agility, positioning, perhaps. But if they are not going to play Tana's fave Hurricanes nephew, I don't know who could do it (nb I thought Nankivell played well from what I saw yesterday but I guess he is more a 12 than a 13).

@nostrildamus Oh I was thinking of the wing to replace Clarke, no idea why after reading your post again.
-
@Bones well if we follow the question you pretended I posed
then yes I guess big Leicester is a power winger in a similar mode to Clarke. Not sure if he shores up that wing defensively though.@nostrildamus said in All Blacks Vs England:

Nothing flash
That would be a Bridge too far

Didn't know they had time for cards before the game.
Oh the player not known as DuPont...
From what I saw, safe enough, slow enough. Made one run straight into tacklers.
Otherwise quiet. -

If they select S Barrett at 6 there will be two loose forwards on the bench. Likely Ioane and Frizell, but I wonder if Harmon gets a chance.
